When boxing giant Oscar De La Hoya brought his nationwide tour promoting his upcoming fight with Manny Pacquiao to the Bay Area, he called on FRONTRUNNER PRODUCTIONS to get the job done. The afternoon event brought boxing fans from all over the Bay Area and Northern California to see the world famous athletes in action. While no punches were thrown, verbal sparring delighted reporters and fans alike as the teams tried their best to rattle their opponent. FRONTRUNNER built the event at Historic Fort Mason Park on the waterfront, featuring the Golden Gate bridge as the backdrop, which lent a sense of place to the nationwide tour. Despite a precarious forecast, the weather cooperated, resulting in a a stunning event. Producer Leigh Simons, with Oscar's firm Goldenboy Promotions, called the event "the smoothest and most successful event of the tour." Boxing PR specialist Kelly Swanson described the set that FRONTRUNNER built as "stately... gorgeous!" FRONTRUNNER was later called upon to consult on the remaining event of the tour in Los Angeles.
